Environmental Commitment
Sustainability and environmental stewardship are an integral part of Lectenz Bio’s culture and business practices. As part of our commitment to these principles, we have taken the following steps with our entire product portfolio:
∙ Use of only easily recyclable packaging
∙ Purposefully small kit and shipping box sizes
∙ Locally-sourced and completely biodegradable cold-chain shipping inserts
∙ Recycled and reusable cold packs
∙ Complete elimination of dry ice from all shipments
Beyond our product packaging, our facility features recycling and composting programs for almost all consumables. As a modern company, we keep the use of paper minimal, using digital platforms for information transfer and storage. Additionally, when paper is necessary, we use exclusively recycled paper.
